The Verderflex Dura pump has a unique space saving design, with a vertical motor and gearbox, dramatically reducing the pump footprint and saving space.At Sioux Falls Water Purification Plant in South Dakota USA, the staff always relied on gravity to feed slake lime slurry to their softening basins.The lime slurry being a dense product and with a high solid content of up to 35% was very abrasive. A would require frequent maintenance with this type of slurry. It would have caused a lot of wear.The way a works is it uses alternative compression and relaxation of a reinforced hose to push the fluid through the pipe work. This cycle creates a vacuum which draws more product in to the hose. The Peristaltic pumps are very accurate and reliable where the pumped product is totally contained within the hose. This feature eliminates the possibility of any moving parts getting clogged or corroded. Having an abrasion resistant, reliable pump makes the peristaltic hose pump the perfect pump for the job.
